[TRENDING VIDEO] Nigerians react as Kenneth Okonkwo’s acronym mix-up sparks laughter in TV interview

Social media has been buzzing following a hilarious segment on News Central TV where actor-turned-politician Kenneth Okonkwo completely fumbled a slogan breakdown.

During the interview, he attempted to explain that ‘Atiku Abubakar stands for A. AA stands for A. Alpha Alpha stands for Alpha’—only for the interviewer to jump in and point out it was actually ‘AAAAA’ for Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Okonkwo laughed it off by telling the host “you have just spoiled this game,” while also launching into criticisms of Tinubu’s presidency and his $20.5 billion and euro-denominated loan requests, labeling them as vote-buying ahead of 2027.

Government officials have maintained that the loans are essential for infrastructure and development, but the viral clip has sparked massive comedy comparisons and fierce debates across online platforms.
